And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb,and by the word of their testimony; and they LOVED NOT THEIR LIVES unto the death [Rev 12:11]

Heed the Signs of the Times

Heed the Signs of the Times

Ariel
Sharon, hailed by the media and others as the ‘Fierce Defender of a Strong
Israel’ died Saturday, January 11, 2014.He had suffered a stroke and fell into a coma eight years ago, in
January 2006.He had been born to
Russian immigrants and became famous for his involvement in the Israeli-Arab
struggles.

Considered
a strong-willed military leader and an aggressive political leader, Sharon left
behind a legacy as the controversial man who fought in many of Israel’s major
wars and had spearheaded the Jewish settlement of Palestinian territories.He had been dubbed ‘the Bulldozer’, due to
his iron will and push to protect Israel and carry out tough decisions he made.

Back in
2007, many articles were published regarding the revealing of the name of the ‘Messiah’
that Rabbi Yitzhak Kaduri had requested to be unsealed one year after his
death.Rabbi Kaduri had passed away in
February 2006 at an estimated age of 108 (reports vary on age).

He was a
Kabbalist who had been born in Baghdad, but his fame became global at his
issuance of ‘apocalyptic warnings’, as well as declaring publicly that he had
met the Jewish Messiah in the month of November 2003.He had also correctly prophesied regarding
the Indonesian tsunami in 2004 two weeks before it occurred, stating that a
cataclysmic event would occur “with the
rising of the sea in the East”.

The name of
the Messiah was scribbled in a note and sealed until a year after his death had
been fulfilled.“Yehoshua” or “Yeshua”
(the Hebrew name of Jesus) was the name Rabbi Kaduri had written.Evangelicals and Kabbalists locked horns in
forums globally as a result of the revealing of the name.

Going by the Biblical account of the true
Messiah’s return, many Christians believed the ‘Messiah’ that the rabbi spoke
of was none other than the Antichrist.His 80 year old son, Rabbi David Kaduri insisted that the note was not
his father’s writing, thereby suggesting that the note was a forgery.

Below is an excerpt from a 2007 news article, found on World News
Daily:

Also in September 2005,
Kaduri said: “The Messiah is already in Israel. Whatever people are sure will
not happen is liable to happen, and whatever we are certain will happen may
disappoint us. But in the end, there will be peace throughout the world.”

As a lifelong student and
teacher of Kabbalah, Kaduri rejected a meeting requested by pop superstar
Madonna, who dabbled in the ancient art of Jewish mysticism. He reportedly said
at the time: “It is forbidden to teach a non-Jew Kabbalah, not even Talmud, not
even simple Torah.”

Kaduri is said to have been
one of the few known living practitioners who used his knowledge of Kabbalah to
affect change in the world. He would often distribute amulets intended to heal,
enhance fertility and bring success. He was also believed to have been involved
in the removal of 20 dybbuks, or lost souls that strayed into the hapless
bodies of living people to torment them.

Aviel Schneider, the author
of the Israel Today story, said the worldwide reaction to news of Kaduri’s note
has been “crazy.” He said he has never received so many emails and calls from
around the globe.

He said he was urged not to
publish the story by the rabbi’s yeshiva, where officials said it was
“impossible” that the note was actually written by Kaduri.

But Schneider was given
access to many of the rabbi’s manuscripts, written in his own hand for the
exclusive use of his students. He was struck by symbols painted by Kaduri all
over the pages.

“They were crosses,” said
Schneider. “In the Jewish tradition, you don’t use crosses. You don’t even use
plus signs because they might be mistaken for crosses. But there they were,
painted in his own hand.”

Asked what those symbols
meant, Kaduri’s family said they were “signs of the angel.”

It was on
the Day of Atonement (2005) that Rabbi Kaduri claimed to have a vision where he
met the ‘Messiah’.He also revealed
that the Messiah would not come until Ariel Sharon, the former Israeli Prime
Minister died.

Linking Ariel Sharon’s Death with
Rabbi Yitzchak Kaduri’s Prophecy

It is
possible that the Lord Jesus (Y’shua) may have appeared to Rabbi Kaduri and
revealed the name of the true Messiah Y’shua, known as Jesus the Christ in
English.God can do all things.Yet, I cannot help but to issue a warning
that true disciples of Christ be very careful about dates or timing on His
return.

Rabbi
Yitzhak Kaduri was a Kabbalist rabbi.Anyone who truly receives the Messiah of the Bible as Lord and Savior,
and in particular a rabbi who had followed the darkness found in the Kabbalah,
would publicly state so, despite any risks or backlash.Yet this rabbi did not want any mention of
such a thing (or HINT of changed faith) until one year after his death.

He also
spoke of rebuilding the temple, which is not something the true Messiah would
encourage, as we are the living stones; we are the temple of the Most High
God.We all are groaning within for the
return of the true Messiah, but did this rabbi meet the true Messiah?I hope so, but his secrecy about his faith,
as well as the desire to rebuild the temple bring up a ‘red flag’.

Why would
he not desire to speak to others who were deceived by the writings and
practices of the Kabbalah and thus counsel them to turn to the true Messiah of
the Torah?This makes me ponder
deeply.Obviously, the Lord can choose
whomsoever He desires to reveal truths – absolutely He can and it would be both
stunning and marvelous if the rabbi truly did convert before his death.

The secret
note contained a Hebrew sentence:

“Yarim Ha’Am Veyokhiakh Shedvaro Vetorato
Omdim.”

“Concerning the letter abbreviation of the Messiah’s
name, “He will lift the people and prove that his word and law are valid.”

“This is I have signed in the month of mercy,
Messiahs Name-Yitzhak Kaduri.”

His
followers believed the note to be authentic but told Israel Today that they do
not know how he got the name of the Messiah.Although many reports (as posted above) stated that his son, Rabbi David
Kaduri claimed the note was a forgery, other reports quote his son as stating
that in the last year of his life, his father, Rabbi Yitzhak Kaduri repeatedly
confirmed that he had dreamt and met the Messiah. “My father has met the Messiah in a vision,” he said, “and told us that
he would come soon.”

Rabbi
Kaduri was highly esteemed and widely respected by multitudes who received
counseling and blessings from him, as well as knew his accurate predictions of
several disasters and countless miracles he performed.Yes, my heart does hope that he truly met the
Messiah spoken of in the holy scriptures.

Yet, we are
also cautioned:

And Jesus answered and said unto them, Take
heed that no man deceive you.

For many shall come in My name, saying, I am Christ; and
shall deceive many.

[Mat
24:4,5]

For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and
shall show great signs and wonders; insomuch that, ifit were possible,they shall deceive the very elect.

Behold, I have told you before.

Wherefore if they shall say unto you, Behold, He is in the
desert; go not forth: behold,He is in the secret chambers; believe it not.

For as the lightning comes out of the east, and shines even
unto the west; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.

Immediately after
the tribulation of those days shall the sun be darkened, and the moon
shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from heaven, and the powers
of the heavens shall be shaken:

And then shall
appearthe sign of the Son of man in heaven: and then shall all the
tribes of the earth mourn, and they shall see the Son of man coming in the
clouds of heaven with power and great glory.

And He shall send His angels with a great sound of a
trumpet, and they shall gather together His elect from the four winds, from one
end of heaven to the other.

[Mat 24:24-31]

After
tribulation of those days, Jesus said, then the sun would be darkened, the moon
would not give her light and the stars will fall…and then shall appear the Son
of man in heaven.

Jesus/Y’shua
carefully laid it out for all of us and that is why I urge you that we all
proceed with caution and watch for the signs and the order of those signs as
given by the true Messiah.Do I hope and
pray that Rabbi Yitzhak Kaduri actually met and received the true Messiah as
his Lord and Savior?Absolutely!

I do
believe that his prophetic word regarding the death of Ariel Sharon should be
considered as a sign of the times we are in, yes – I do.But I caution how we are warned of the
Antichrist who has the ability and will (IF POSSIBLE) deceive even the elect
(bold and highlights emphasis by this posts author: see verse Mat 24:24).

To be fair,
the following video speaks about the prophecy and compares Rabbi Kaduri to the
apostle Paul, on the way to Damascus.The video was uploaded a little less than 4 years ago, in June 2010.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eATJ4PRXEJkWith
Jesus/Y’shua’s words before our eyes in the Holy Scriptures, it is with love I
urge caution. All of us sense the soon-return of the true Messiah.
We sense the urgency in our spirit man, but I do not want to take the words of
Christ out of context or order. I am interested in hearing what others
have to say about this.

At the time
of this writing, as well as Ariel Sharon’s death being announced only this day,
I do not yet have word from the Lord on this matter.

However, it seems to me that the Rabbi's revealing of the name of Yehoshua or Yeshua, with his coming being after the death of Ariel Sharon, I have to remind readers that according to the word of God, the Antichrist (of all antichrists) comes first. Is Sharon's death a sign of the Antichrist's arrival? Seems to me that the Islamists (Muslims) are awaiting the return of the Iman. Dangerous days...

Last year (2013) in August, the CBN (Christian Broadcasting Network) made a report:

“President Ahmadinejad seems to think that the time is ripe for the
12th Imam’s reappearance and that, as president, he should play a role
in opening the way for his return,” the journal said. “He is reported
to have said in one of his cabinet sessions, ‘We have to turn Iran
into a modern and divine country to be the model for all nations, and
which will also serve as the basis for the return of the 12th Imam.’” Like Bernard Lewis of Princeton, the Kairos authors said
Ahmadinejad seems to believe “that the hand of God is guiding him to
trigger a series of cataclysmic events which could precipitate the
return of the 12th Imam. Only time will tell if this is his true
conviction; but if he does hold such a view, his possession of nuclear
weapons is a particularly scary prospect.”

CBNI would urge a cautionary warning to all true believers. It is written (as posted) that IF it were possible, even the elect would be deceived (I know - I'm repeating myself, but I think I need to). Pray. The Lord is also warning us to get right with Him. We all must seek Him
prayerfully and do all that He instructs us to do, myself included – He did
give me a very stern warning regarding ‘dying to self’ (the old man) and
OBEDIENCE.

Yes, a very
stern warning, which I am not to release the fullness of it at this time.
Understand the words ‘stern’ and ‘warning’ – He has been most
longsuffering, but His word will go forth and not return void. The stern
warning is yet another display of His agape love, but He will not be
mocked. If we do not heed His warning to lay all down NOW, the
consequences of our choice is upon our own heads. Selah

Daniel answered and said, Blessed be the name of God forever and ever: for wisdom and might are His: And He changes the times and the seasons: He removes kings, and sets up kings: He gives wisdom unto the wise, and knowledge to them that know understanding:

He reveals the deep and secret things: He knows what is in the darkness, and the light dwells with Him.[Dan 2:20-22]for His gloryBonita

I'm taking into account that Jesus stated that, "no man knows the day nor the hour". I find it fascinating that God the Father would reveal such a thing to a man of His return within a particular time period. The Bible specifically states that the Lord's return would be startling to us all, which is why He warns us to be ready at all times. I don't know what the Lord revealed to this man, as I feel that it's really left up to me to try and decide, but I am leery when people reveal things that God has ONLY revealed to them with specifics that somewhat contradict what is written.

Fear the Lord and tremble at His word. The second death is real.
--------
Repent, for the kingdom of God is at hand. The last of the last days are upon us, and just as in the days of Noah (Noe), most don't want to hear it, saying;
Where is the promise of His coming, for since the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as they were from the beginning of creation. [2Pet 3:4]
And this is the will of Him that sent Me, that everyone which sees the Son, and believes on him, may have everlasting life: and I will raise him up at the last day. [Jn 6:40] (words of Jesus/Yeshua)
